Cheapflights Recognized as a Leading Power Brand in Travel


BOSTON, MA--(Marketwire - December 16, 2009) - Cheapflights has been named as one of the top 20 Power Brands in travel in the December edition of Travolution, the UK's leading title for the online travel industry. Travolution states, "Cheapflights does what it says on the tin: aggregates flights in a useful format for consumers. The company is run in a smart way by smart people, giving the overall impression that if it decides to do something, it will do it well. Interestingly, it has achieved its presence without the huge marketing budgets of other travel dot.coms."

Since 1996, Cheapflights has been dedicated to supplying users with the best published flight deals from airlines at smart low prices. Cheapflights pioneered the concept of flight search and comparison and, since its inception, its team of travel experts continues to search the globe to provide the best selection of quality, brand-name travel deals for less.

"This year, we have been focused on building our global presence and so are delighted to be listed in Travolution's top 20 Power Brands and to be in the company of such esteemed consumer brands," says Meredith Hanrahan, Global Head of Marketing for Cheapflights. "We've recently entered eight new markets, including Germany, Australia and New Zealand, with the goal of establishing a worldwide brand. This award is a welcome recognition of our efforts and the valued service we provide to consumers."
